First Word

Nope, not Monkey.

This day, 7 years ago, at 6 months of age Turkey said his first word: "bath".

We were at Nana's house and had just finished dinner and it was bath time, and I looked at him and asked him if he was ready for his bath and he reached his arms up and said "bath". Which Nana echoed, and then Turkey kept saying "bath, bath, bath" over and over again. While we carried him upstairs, and ran the water in the tub and gave him his bath.

Bye 9 months of age he was also saying: Mama, Dada, Ba-Ba (eat), Nana and Nun-ni (good-night).

He's been talking for 7 years now, and we haven't had a moment of silence since (OK, it's quiet when he goes on vacation with my mom... at least it's quiet for us.)
